"The Northwest Mounted Police Commissioner gave Constable Stewart Fuller a difficult berth when he assigned him to Gold Chutes. For it was temptingly rich country, close by the Mother-Lode Camp. Outlaw Wheel Bradley's kidnapping forays were bringing him ransoms in nuggets. Dakota Rod was smuggling goods into Canada in an illegal bull-train. Sitting Bull's Sioux, their minds on border scalps, border gold, border whiskey and border women, prepared to sweep upward from the States. Yet through it all Fuller, true to the spirit of the Mounted, saw justice done while his fellow countrymen carved out an empire." O Canada! .
